After School - Kaleidoscope
About
Kaleidoscope aims to provide each child with a positive, safe and enriching after school experience; as an extension of the Lower and Middle Schools, we seek to engage children in activities to support diversity of interests as well as cognitive and physical abilities. Children enjoy down time and a snack before heading to an enrichment program, completing homework or engaging in free play with friends.
Kaleidoscope After School Program
This year we will continue to use an online platform called Homeroom that will allow for online registration and payment for Kaleidoscope, enrichment classes and camps. Additionally, as always, we will be open when school is closed with the exception of national holidays, for an additional fee of $100 per full day and $60 half day. These days are a separate registration with limited spots and are made available to register the month prior to the school closing. Beginning in the 2024-2025 school year, Kaleidoscope is $13 per hour/$6.50 per half hour and $25 as a drop-in.

Parent Feedback
“Our daughter loves going to Kaleidoscope! It gives her an opportunity to extend the learning and fun from her school day at Tower Hill. The staff does such a wonderful job with activities and opportunities for free play that she actually misses it when she doesn’t go.”
